Melbourne CBD Map

Pictured below is the Melbourne CBD Map which shows the heart of the city. You can see all the popular streets which have some of our wonderful attractions along them. (Map courtesy of Visit Victoria.)




Bourke St – This is where Bourke Street Mall is which has our main department stores on it including Myer and David Jones. All the major labels are along here which means there is a lot of excellent shopping to be done. The magic is in the cobble stoned back streets.

Little Bourke St – Home to Chinatown which was established in the Victorian gold rush era in 1854 and is the oldest Chinatown in Australia.

Collins St – The top end of this street is called the Paris End of Collins Street and for good reason. It has all my favourite designer stores such as Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Chanel, Prada, Bally, Hermes and Giorgio Armani amongst many others. At the opposite end of the street is another one of my favourite stores - Krispy Kreme!

Lonsdale St – This is the Greek part of town that has some wonderful restaurants, deliciously decadent cake shops and a few Greek souvenir stores.

Flinders St – Federation Square is located here which has become the new meeting place. It is a new and very modern development which caused a lot of controversy for its very quirky design.

It houses The Ian Potter Centre: NGV Australia which is the world's first major gallery dedicated exclusively to Australian art. There is also the Australian Centre for the Moving Image and the National Design Centre.

For motoring enthusiast there is the Champions: Australian Racing Museum & Hall of Fame.

For national and international guests there is the Melbourne Visitor Centre where you can get another map of Melbourne, actually you can get many different types of maps of our beautiful city that will help you explore and enjoy you stay here all the more.

Once you have explored all this there are 15 restaurants, cafes and bars to relax and discuss your exciting day.

A majestic, landmark building known as Flinders Street Station is also along this street. It is our major train station that has been serving our city since 1854.
